Let us hope that Lancaster makes it to the finals. If Lancaster does make it, those us who have Time-Warner cable will be able to see the finals Ohio News Network (ONN) next Saturday.Seeing McKnight in action will equip us to assess how much he, as a freshman, will be able to help alleviate the Zip "big man" and "inside quickness" problem that haunted the Zips this year.

I have the story on the ONN broadcast of the HS championship games.For sure: the Saturday championship for all divisions will be live.Maybe: the Friday games will also be televised live.If not: the ONN crew will be on-hand to film highlights to air on its broadcasts for Friday.All ZipNations: what the highlights/live action on Lancaster and come back to this forum with your observations.
